Bain's Cape Mountain Whisky

Great little drink. Knew nothing about it before being given a bottle. Very enjoyable. More complexities appear the more you sip.

A rich, Single Grain South African Whisky by James Sedgwick Distillery made from 100% locally sourced yellow maize; it is double-aged for 3 full years in first-fill ex-Bourbon casks & then transferred to different set of first-fill ex-Bourbon casks for an additional 18 to 30 months. It has a rich birth with vanilla, toffee, custard & floral notes; while a full & balanced life adds notes of vanilla creams, icing sugar, orchard fruits, cardamom, oak, corn & banana; that leads to a death of medium length with hints of sweet grapefruit. August / December 2018 / November 2019

Honey, vanilla, amazing dram
